TOBACCO-PIPE.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Apr. 6, 1920.

Application filed. January 22, 1919. Serial No. 272,424.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, JAMES W. IVORY, a subject of the King of Great Britain, residing in the city and county of Philadelphia, State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Tobacco-Pipe, of which the following is a specification.

My invention consists of a tobacco or smoking pipe formed of a plurality of communicating bowls for purposes as will be hereinafter set forth.

The invention is satisfactorily illustrated in the accompanying drawing, but the im portant instrumentalities thereof may be varied, and so it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the specific details shown and described, as long as they are within the spirit or scope of the claims.

Figure 1 represents a side elevation of a tobacco pipe embodying my invention.

Figs. 2 and 3 represent longitudinal sections thereof showing different uses of the main and supplemental bowls.

Figs. 4: and 5 represent sections of other embodiments of my invention.

Similar numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in the figures.

Referring to the drawings.

1 designates one of the bowls of the pipe, the same having extending from its wall the stem 2. 3 designates another bowl in whose side wall is the aperture 4 in which the end of the stem 2 is fitted and retained, thus placing the'two bowls in communication in tandem position.

5 designates the main stem of the pipe the same extending rearwardly of said bowl 3 and being provided with the mouth piece 6 as usual in tobacco pipes, it being noticed that the bowl 3 is intermediate of the bowl 1 and the stem 5.

7 designates a stopper or cap which may be inserted in the top of the bowl 3 as in Figs. 1 and 2, or in the top of the bowl 1 as in Fig. 3, so as to close the respective bowls air tight at their tops.

The bowl 3 may be filled with tobacco, with the cap or stopper closing the same, and the bowl 1 is filled with tobacco and lighted when the smoke may be drawn through the stem 2 through the tobacco in the bowl 3 and the stem 5 into the mouth, the tobacco in the bowl 3 absorbing the nicotin, making a sweet, clean and cool smoke, or the stopper or cap may be removed from the bowl 3 and placed in the bowl 1 when the tobacco in the bowl 3 may be lighted and smoked in the usual way.

It will be seen that if the cap or stopper is on the bowl 1 the draft is through the bowl 3 and if said cap or stopper is on the bowl 3, the draft is through the bowl 1.

The bowl 1 may be disconnected from the bowl 3 and a plug placed in the aperture 4 of said bowl 3 as shown dotted in Fig. 4: to close the same, and another bowl may be fitted into the bowl 3 to receive the tip end of a cigar and hold the cigar therein for smoking in said bowl, or if the stopper or cap is placed on the bowl 3 and said plug is removed, said aperture is adapted to receive the tip end of a cigar as a holder for the latter, when the cigar may be smoked through said bowl 3.

The bottom of the bowl 3 is flat as at 8 so that the pipe may be rested thereon without liability to overturn.

In Fig. 1 I show in dotted lines the collet 9 the same being fitted in the mouth of the bowl 1 and having its bore adapted to receive the tip end of a cigar as a holder for the latter.

In Fig. 5, 1O designates a cigar holder which is provided with the stem 11 which latter may be fitted in the aperture 4, thus sustaining said holder on the bowl 3.

In either case, Figs. 1 and 5, a cigar can be smoked while being supported on the pipe, the device thus presenting a combined pipe and cigar holder.

I may multiply the stems and bowls indefinitely in order to obtain a cool and dry smoke, as long as the caps or stoppers are fitted air tight on the relative bowl, the extreme outer bowl which is to receive the tobacco and its stem I prefer to be of clay or meerschaum, and the intermediate bowl or bowls to be French brier.

Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

l. A tobacco pipe consisting of a plurality of upright bowls, a communicating stem adapted to connect said bowls, a main stem extending from the bowl intermediate of said stems, and a closing stopper common to said bowls appliable to either bowl adapted bowl, and a collet adapted to be fitted to to be fitted t0 the top of either bowl and either bowl and having in it a bore adapted l0 eXclugLe air from the latter. f to comprise a cigar holder.

2. tobacco pipe consistin 0 a vlurality 5 of upright bowls a main stem fo r one of JAMES IVORY the bowls a communicating stem for the Witnesses: plurality of bowls, a stopper common to the JOHN A. VVIEDERSHEIM, bowls, and adapted to be fitted to either N. BUSSINGER.
